Exeter City mark, but I need help with the maker

Another one from Exeter I need help with.

It's from a plain table spoon, 1806 I believe, but I can't find the maker. It looks like WD. Any ideas?

I've found a possibility in that there was a silversmith in Plymouth called William Dunsford, but as I can't find an image of his mark anywhere, I have nothing to compare my mark with.

Yes, this is the mark of William Newman Dunsford of Plymouth.
